Full disclosure in abuse is not necessarily equivalent to full disclosure in -suspected- abuse. The earlier comments in this thread were more or less demands for disclosure when the vendor had not yet been able to speak with the customer to determine if there was indeed abuse and if it was intentional. I suppose theoretically that a ToS could be crafted that would allow the vendor to release customer information in the case of ANY suspected abuse, but do you really think that would make a difference to The Bad Guys?

I may regret wading into this one Regarding posting from a Gmail account, I'm also posting from a non-work account, for two reasons. One, our company policy is to tag an annoying legal disclaimer onto every outbound message, and two, I don't want anything I say on this list to come back on the company I work for. I'm not authorized to speak for them, so I won't. When it comes to abuse complaints, we investigate and act to protect our customers and our network when we determine that abuse is indeed happening. Only after we deal with the immediate threat do we contact our customer to let them know. Although there are cases of intentional abuse, the majority of the time the customer has no idea what we're talking about. They have to get their tech people or an outside support company to look into the problem, and then they call us back when they have it fixed. Sometimes we work directly with their tech people to help them identify the source. We would NEVER out the customer to the public, even if we felt the abuse was intentional. My CEO and our lawyers would blow a gasket if we were to potentially libel a customer. There have been plenty of times when I was every bit as frustrated as some of the people on this list, but to start naming names without proof? Won't happen.

Why does it matter what his position is? Sounds like they had a forged LOA from the customer and that they fixed the issue when they found out about it. I am not sure you can ask too much more from a network operator, the best thing we can hope for are companies that will cancel customers if they are abuse sources, that is exactly what happened here. Lots of people are posting on nanog with outside email addresses because they don't want to be tied too closely to the corporation for which they work, it seems totally reasonable to me especially given the mix of personal and professional ties a lot of us have in this community.The main issue here is getting results and it sounds like that happened here pretty quickly. Most technical types are good people and for the most part will work though their corporate BS to get abuse issues solved as quickly as they can. I know we do try to resolve abuse quickly and people who are nice and provide data up front just help expedite the process further, acting like a jerk is by far the least productive way to engage people in the nanog community.

Whatever it may be, it belongs to you and you should probably keep it to yourself. (Who knows? Since business processes are now patentable, maybe someday you can get a patent on it!) I did however ask for the name of the crook whose name was on the check that paid for the hijacked space routing. Is that something you can respond to, or no? If not, why not? Was Integra Telecom _actually_ defrauded? If so, who defrauded you? Did your customer, Circle Internet defraud you? If you are claining that THEY are also an innocent party in this, then who defrauded them? Whose name was on the check that THEY cashed? It really is a rather simple question, and doesn't require an elaborate, convoluted, or lengthy digression into the details of your process. Ya know, maybe it's just me, but it would seem to me that that if either you or your customer, Circle Internet, were in fact defrauded in this case, that both of you would be altogether ready, willing, and indeed eager to ``out'' the actual crooked perpetrator... you know... instead of, like, hiding the perp's identity and thus helping him to cover his tracks. But I guess that's just me. (When somebody cheats _me_, I am not myself in the habit of then going out of my way to protect him.) Don't misunderstand me. If your company was in fact dedrauded, then allow me to express my sincere condolences for your loss. Or would it be more accurate to say your gain? You DID cash the check right? I mean your company does NOT have a policy of granting everybody three months of free service, right? Please just reply to me off-list. No thanks. As Jodie Foster said in the movie Contact, ``This isn't a person to person call.'' Crooks, hijacking, and mass spamming affect everybody on the whole Internet. I didn't ask for the name of the crook who signed the check just for my private or personal edification. Other ISPs should know who they need to be on the lookout for. I can assure you that just because YOU have now stopped routing space for this crook, that doesn't mean that he's going to just fold up his tent and slink quietly away into oblivion. In fact I already have evidence in hand that he's still got both IP space and snowshoe spamming domains located elsewhere (including elsewhere on Circle Internet, see below) that he is continuing to use, even as we speak.

All just on the basis of a sheet of paper that any fool could trivially manufacture in 15 minutes or less at the local Kinkos? Sorry. No. I think not. Money was paid. Money changed hands. Which hands did it come from? From the hijacker crook, obviously. But which one? (There are so many different crooks on the Internet these days.) What was this one's name? Not the phony blaoney name that was on the LOA. That really doesn't matter. The name on the check. ...and that they fixed the issue... I'm sorry to disagree, but no, actually, it didn't. As I pointed out in the very message that you are responding to, nothing here is ``fixed'', nothing here is ``resolved'', and the evidence seems to indi- cate that the exact same snowshoe spammer who was spamming out of the hijacked block that was getting connectivity from Circle Internet and also, indirectly, from Integra Telecom is still very much alive and well and still operating within the UN-hijacked portion of Circle Internet's IP space. I understand that now that the _hijacking_ part of this tiny drama has been terminated, some folks, here and elsewhere, would prefer now to just roll over and go back to sleep. That's your choice and you're welcome to it. I, however, would sort-of still like to see the perp being escorted to the exit of the entire Internet, along with a swift kick in the ass and an admonition never to come back again. That clearly hasn't happened yet, and what with all the corporate CYA going on it doesn't even look probable any time soon. I am not sure you can ask too much more from a network operator Yea. Gee, I guess you're right. Expecting honesty, courtesy, forthrightness, and enough information to make sure that other networks will not be similarly tainted in the future is just completely out of the question. That's apparently far too much care and compassion for one's community and one's fellow man to expect from any CORPORTATION, after all. Please excuse me for harboring patently ridiculous hopes and/or expectations. the best thing we can hope for are companies that will cancel customers if they are abuse sources... That may be the best that _you_ are capable of hoping for. Me personally? I set my sights a little higher. Maybe someday... perhaps not in my lifetime, but someday... when there is a lot less corporate CYA and just a little bit more civic responsibility, then maybe we really could get these kinds of crooks off the Internet in a way so that they don't just reappear someplace else a month or two down the road, when things have quieted down. Look, here's two scenarios. See if you can fit them both together in a way that makes sense. I can't. If I go into Macy's, charge a pair of shoes on my Macy's credit card, and then, when I get my monthy charge account bill, I simply don't pay it, then within 30 days, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion will all know about that, and they will go around blabbing to every other merchant in the world, and pretty soon I won't be able to buy even a stick of bubble gum on credit. (Note that _Macy's_ apparently has no trouble ratting out _it's_ less than savory customers.) If however I collude with some friendly and/or greedy ISP/NSP or two on the Internet, hijack a /16 or two, get caught, and get publically outted, then I can be reasonably assured that all of the greedy companies, all the way up and down the entire networking food chain will instantly clam up, you know, just to avoid having to admit that they profited from my scheme too. So I can also be reasonably sure, going in, that even if I'm caught, not only will I not be punished in any way, but better still, I'll be able to just wait a few weeks and then just go down the street to the next greedy ISP/NSP and pull the exact same scam all over again. And nobody except the companies that I've paid off will ever even know my name. If this all makes sense to anybody, then please do explain it to me, because I'm not seeing it. All I see is a sure-fire recipie for an endless cavalcade of IP hijacking incidents. For the perp, there is simply no downside whatso- ever, even if he gets caught, so he's just gonna do it over and over and over again. Which part of this is either

P.P.S. OK, so you are reluctant to give up the actual hijacker. So let's just skip that for now.
